Hey James,

I do not have any optical device associated with the VM.
What I tried and worked was to update the OS and also the kernel.
Since I did an update from 2.6.X base repo kernel to elrepo lt kernel 
and Centos basic updates and then a reboot it was all resolved.
I do not know the reason but it seems like the updated system solved the 
issue.

Thanks,
Eliezer
